Transforming Urban Spaces Through Art and Community

At Torque Marketing, we believe in the transformative power of creative placemaking—a process that uses arts and culture to activate public spaces, foster community connections, and reimagine urban environments. "Art As An Intersection," hosted at 800 Fulton and produced by Jayinex, is a testament to this philosophy. This event is more than just an art show; it is an immersive experience that celebrates the intersection of creativity, community, and cultural expression, reshaping how we interact with our city.

In a time when our city faces complex challenges, "Art As An Intersection" stands out as a beacon of hope, offering more than just a gathering—it’s an immersive urban experience that unites art, music, dance, and community in a transformative and inspiring way. Celebrating the power of hip-hop and the arts to bridge neighborhood divides, cultivate pride, and spark collaboration, this event invites us all to come together, celebrate, and support Chicago's vibrant cultural landscape.

This exhibit offers a compelling visual narrative of Chicago’s urban landscape, illustrating how creative partnerships can elevate and transform public spaces.
